YNCCの増設プラントが稼動を再開
 
 大手商社筋によると、韓国のエチレンセンターの一つであるYNCCは先週末に年産35万トン能力のエチレン新プラントの本稼動を再開した。

 今回再稼動したエチレン装置は既存の第1号機に追加建設したもので、昨年10月に完工したもののメカニカル面の小トラブルが相次ぎ発生して安定操業に移行できない状態が続いていた。そこで今年に入り全面運休して抜本的な対策を講じたところ、高率操業を維持していける見通しが立ったため再稼動に踏み切ったもの。

ハンファ

In 1952, the Hanwha Group was founded under the name, Korea Explosives Corporation. The founding chairman, Kim Jong-hee, had built the explosives company from the ruins of the Korean War with a sense of duty, to build a patriotic business that could contribute to the rebirth of the national economy.

He believed that in order to achieve rapid recovery in the basic industries of a devastated country, explosives production was needed above everything. As Korea's only private powder plant, Korea Explosives Co. showed remarkable growth to become one of Asia's leading explosives suppliers within ten years. The monumental step taken by Korea Explosives Co., which had risen in an area no one else dared to harness, was the very starting point of today's Hanwha Group.

ハンファ・ケミカルがイラク進出

 ハンファ・ケミカルは原価競争力を確保するため、韓国の石油化学業界で初めてイラク進出を推進することを19日、明らかにした。40億ドル(約4170億円)を投資し、イラク南部にエチレン生産設備や石油化学製品生産工場などを建設する計画だ。ハンファは同日、ソウル市中区の同社ビルで、イラク産業省次官と以上の内容の合弁事業意向書を締結した。今後はイラク政府と具体的に事業性を検討していく予定だ。

 ハンファがイラク市場に進出するのは、低コストの原料をほかに先駆けて確保するためだ。石油の産地に大規模な生産基地を建設し、中東・北米製品と同等の原価競争力を得ようという戦略だ。

 ハンファ・ケミカル関係者は「イラクは低価格の原料が豊富なうえ、石油化学産業が未成熟な地域なので、ほかに先駆けて確保すればその効果はより大きいと見ている」と述べた。
 

Hanwha Chemical said today that it has signed a letter of intent (LOI) to build a petrochemical complex in Iraq. The LOI was signed at Seoul by the company’s president, Han-hong Bang; and Iraq’s deputy minister of industry, Mohammed Zain. The complex will require an investment of about $4 billion and include gas processing facilities, ethylene, and other petrochemical production units, with a combined capacity of 1 million m.t./year of petrochemicals. Completion is expected in 2020–21, the company says.

These facilities will be part of a larger ethylene and natural gas processing complex planned to be built in southern part of Iraq.

Hanwha Chemical to enter diaper materials market

Hanwha Chemical has launched a pilot production of superabsorbent polymers, a material commonly used for baby diapers, according to a news provider.

There are speculations in the market that Hanwha Chemical has currently carried out trial production of 1,600 tons of SAP using raw materials from China in its factory in Yeosu, South Jeolla Province.

A gram of SAP can absorb up to 500 grams of liquid, and is widely used for materials such as diapers and sanitary napkins.

SAP is expected to be a lucrative industry as countries such as China and India achieve higher economic growth and demand for baby diapers increase.

The news outlet reported that Hanwha Chemical is looking into the SAP industry, but is hesitant on mass-production due to the difficulty of obtaining acrylic acid, its base material.

To obtain acrylic acid, Hanwha must either purchase them from LG Chem, the only company in Korea producing SAP and acrylic acid, or import from China or Japan.

Hanwha is reluctant to buy from a rival company, but is also wary of the quality of Chinese-manufactured acrylic acid, as well as fearing potential customer avoidance, according to speculations.

The global market size for acrylic acid was 4.9 million tons, and SAP was 2.3 million tons in 2014. The industries are expected to grow 5 percent and 6.5 percent, respectively, by 2020.

韓国ハンファ 塩素化塩ビ樹脂に参入 蔚山に年産3万トン設備

Hanwha Chemical は3月22日、塩素化塩ビPVC事業への進出のために、蔚山石油化学産業団地の第2工場に3万トン規模の生産ラインの建設に入ったと明らかにした。

韓国の塩素化塩ビの消費量は9,000トンほどで、国内では生産技術を備えた企業がないことから全量を輸入してきた。
PVCに比べて倍以上に価格が高いうえに需要先が一定しており、安定した収益を期待できるとみている。
2012年から始めた研究開発が3年ぶりに実を結んだとしている。

今年中に生産ラインの建設が完成すれば、来年から3万トンほどを生産することになる。既存の生産工程に独自開発した新工程を加えてCPVCを生産する方式だ。それだけにハンファケミカルはCPVC工場の増設を通じ、中国産の低価格製品など押されているPVCの生産量(年間60万トン)を減らす効果とともに CPVCを製造する、一石二鳥の効果が期待できることになった。

塩素化塩ビ
は世界的に米Lubrizol Corporation、カネカ、積水化学工業(徳山積水)など数社のみが事業展開しており、ハンファの参入により競争が激しくなると見られている。

カネカは2013年7月、米国子会社のKaneka North Americaの塩素化塩ビの生産能力を年産約20千トン増強し、年産50千トン体制とすることを決定した。
日米合わせた生産能力は年産76千トンに達する予定

徳山積水は2013年7月に生産能力を増強 (33千トン→40千トン)

Lubrizol is a single-source provider of polymer technologies designed to solve today’s toughest building and production challenges, and is an innovator and world leader in chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) resins and compounds.

既存工場はLouisville, Ky.とOevel, Belgium.

2013年3月にPhase-1で  85千トン、Phase-2で85千トンの増設を発表した。

Phase I — Operational by end of 2014; Total capacity of 85,000 metric tons of CPVC resin and 100,000 metric tons of CPVC compound; Total investment of approximately $200 million

Phase II – Operational by end of 2016; Adds 85,000 metric tons of CPVC resin and 100,000 metric tons of CPVC compound; Total additional investment of approximately $200 million
